To get the forum.css of any site....
first...view the source of the page.......somewhere in the beginning you will find a block of html code that looks like
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="theme/Default/forum.css" type="text/css" media="screen" title="Default FUDforum Theme">
note the location of the forum.css file....
in this case being
theme/Default/forum.css
just append that to the root url of the forum...and voila..you have the forum style sheet of that site..
for example....
if a site has the forum with a url like..
www.example.com/services/forum/
then append theme/Default/forum.css like
www.example.com/services/forum/theme/Default/forum.css
and there, you have the theme....
now you just have to take a look at it and change your forum.css according to what you downloaded...
Mind you, I don't know if you need to get permission from the hosting site to copy their theme....
Since the forum is released under GPL, i do not think so...but i think it would be a good idea to ask first..i guess......just for sake of ethics....
regards and have fun

littleking,
This is easy to do:
1. Log on as admin
2. Go to Admin Control Panel
3. Under "Template Management" click "Template Editor"
4. Select the template set you want to change --> probably default.
-click Edit.
5. Scroll down and click "Forum.css.tmpl"->> FORUM CSS
6. It will open the forum style sheet for you to edit. The first section, and the one you want to change should look something like this:
body {
background: #E5E5E5;
color: #000000;
margin: 2px;
font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, "Myriad Web", Syntax, sans-serif;
font-size: 10pt;
}
Now, depending on how you want to limit the width, you have to change this section in different ways. If you want to have the forum only take up 80% of the width, and be centered, (like the forum shown here.), then you want to change the above section to this:
body {
background: #E5E5E5;
color: #000000;
margin: 2px;
font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, "Myriad Web", Syntax, sans-serif;
font-size: 10pt;
width:80%;
margin-left:10%;
}
Now you have to click "save". Go back to your forum, the changes should have taken effect.
